ants ohe one and all that we hae hwe all the privileges and blessings conferred uron upon us that we for the latter day saints are not prepared to receive the celestial kingdom at once because they have not eyes to see and ad ears to heal and they do not understand the mind and anil will of the lord on orl these subjects if we did we would see sep at once that our blessings 0 are gre greater

a hil bui huld huid ilo this temple brethren around around say we will pay our tithing ipg and we it willingly androu maydo what you 1 please ae a e with it sometimes I 1 ilav avva tilo thought h that our ovir tithing is so great that it requires eq pg ij res pes more 1 looking after than at it is worth seea see a 4 dozen men in the tithing 9 office and a dozen or fifteen in another place taking g

gf and jand pa pay y it willingly we are satisfied that hat is all that is required of them if my brethren who live pear here whom v om the lord is blessing have havea a mind to to some teams extra for drawing 1 I 1 give them the tho privilege 1 i there are some things ie regard gard to the generaL generau business of the church that it is hardly worth while for me to mention I 1 could name a

faction to iny brethren and would enlighten them at all they are welcome to a few items I 1 will ask the elders of israel who it is that finds the money to defray air all alf these ex ipen ses 1 I 1 will ask them irow how much i money they pay in inon on their tithing why h say they we let iet you have our wheat and cattle and they ar are ejust just as ag goodas moneet money aak your sour you ever eser knew a bushel ush of t wheat ar all ali undred pounds of flour or a horse an ox a cowl coffa 3 ta mule mille a sheen sheep a load of potatoes a load ojan athin X elid that phat h at 14 on

we will make a rough adough guess which will probably be below the amark by many thousand dollars and say forty thousand dollars do the ur efthion Dreth i redi reri living in in the ibe counties

over oer hie lilge hundred thousand dollars owin owing lib fo the Nipe ripe perpetual tuai emigration fund for fur helping the poor here does Docs 4 this thia thi enlighten your sour mind any why no says some unless we know where the money comes from it would puzzle our astrologers to tell you still yau can dan ask them if f yoa yon wish they can be just as sensible about that as any thing else eise who pays this money who ia it that at buys every doll dollars ars worth of goods that is brought here to pay to these hands who work on the public works Is there a man at work there but who gets a portion of money and store pay and with the except exception lon ion of what the mer merchants charts here hero payin on tithing i is there a dollars worth ta be got without paying the money for it Is there a light of glass a pound of nails a pound of rope or anything else brought here from the east that the money is not paid for no not hot one pound no nov then you astrologers sit down and make your figures and see if you can tell where rethe the money mone moue y comes from or you scholars and learned men enlighten the minds of the people eople on these matters if you can f I 1 will tell you what you can do you can be economical no mical prudent and saving and help a great T deal deai e al more than you now do if it we will go to work and finish this canal we can bring bing the rock here for chetem the temple tempie ae I 1 have as asked kedmy my brethren and I 1 wl will irl lip ask again will not you who have sawmills bring on some lumber so that we can go on with this taber tabernacle natle nabie will willylu not help a little in this telegraphic operation ppe ration we want vant lumber for this that and the other i will you not bring on some sone yes ll 11 say they isyou if you will pay ns money for it 1 with regard to paying 1 tithing think 11 I 1 will say that it is becoming easier easler and more cong conj congenial ellal to 10 the minds of the people every year yea r and they pay it with a glad giad glad giad heart this I 1 is sa a blessing to tp them let me say to you od just what the lord requires res of you if you would only do it we he requires atour hands each and ev every ery one of us to begin and sustain the tiie kingdom d 0 in of god clod and to withdraw from the world and the business of the world if oui our n neighbors want our flour let them come here to buy it pay a good fair price for it and take it away but Jut never carry it to them never never no never if we want goods hats boots shoes bonnets coats and so forth we should send latter day saints elders of israel ath our money to markets where they have them for sale and purchase them and brino bring 0 tham them here and we should buy of our brethren and sustain the kingdom of god I 1 say this js is the mind and thewalt of god goa concerio concerning ug this mis people if they will hearken to it purchase no moie more more of your enemies I 1 read a here on this subject a few weeks since given in lil jackson county missouri commanding br gilbert to go and purchase goods and sell them to the ne saints without fraud I 1 will t take ake e the liberty of saying that I 1 consider some of our own merchants do not come up to the requirements qui quire remen ments ts of this revelation for they tuy would eeli geu to the latter day gay Sain saints tsa a piece of goods worth horth fifty cents for a thousand dollars if they could get it without any regard fo to truth righteousness oi 01 justice or the building up of anybody on gods gobs earth but themselves this is the case with some of our own awn merch mereb merchants ints while there are others who deal fairer fairen there are some amongst us who would not speculate had they all the opportunity in the world as much as some who are called latter day saints all this is true but we cannot begin to point out and individualize that will not do h here ere but it is the will of the lord that you and I 1 live i within ourselves do you recollect that I 1 made mention of our government yesterday we have sued to them many times for our ria rights lits fon foe bread and tl they ei have given us a stone we
